Oooohhh... Btw, they do 'work' under Firefox. I know because I'm on Firefox right now.

Man, you guys are slow. MR does something for April Fool's every year. You just can't trust this place on the 1st of April.

I meant clicking on the icons does nothing. I made that comment before we found out about the "Hover" part...

Hmmm I see. Nice one MR

Well I got the joke, despite the fact that in my FF, the alt reads "Rule 'A'" etc. instead of just "A" ...

BTW, did you buy your bundle yet?

What was last year's one?

This is not a bad idea for new MR features. The iPod one caught my attention. Instead of signatures describring what hardware we own, about roll-over icons

 

[jaw04005]

Pretty.

I'm just happy I didn't get no lame Shuffle.

You are now officially obligated to convert. Good luck.

 

[OrangeSVTguy]

I want the good ol red, white and blue flag

Anyone figure out how the icons are assigned?

Oh and iJohnHenry above me got the orange ipod lol

 

[epyfa]

I actually like the idea. We should keep them and they should represent the data you type in to your profile.

 

[Legolamb]

cute.
Next year, we could have entire posts in iconese that you need a magic decoder ring to decipher

I think last year was just a Page 3 with bizarre rumors. Definitely not as subtle as this year.

I thought the same thing for new features. Arn turned on some feature in order to do the April Fool's thing, but now that we all know the feature is there, he'll be stuck putting it to a real use!

It is the flag of Bolivia.

Slow to jump on the bandwagon as per usual however Im eager to see what my icons are...

 

[jackiecanev2]

What are all these icons? And since when?

So today I log in... post... and realize that everyone has all these little icons under their username. Did I miss something?? I've never seen them before, until today; I have no idea what they are or mean and they don't seen to do anything...

 

[techfreak85]
